Take a Korg PA1x or maybe a PA2x, and compare to the PA series today.

Take a Roland G70 , and compare it to BK's or E-A7..

The older models have a more analog feel to them, more punch, not as thin sounding as the newer models..

There may be many reasons but my guess would be the samples themselves, but mostly ac/dc converters were of better quality on flagship models of yesteryear.

I have had the chance to compare the above often, and know there is a difference.

What do you folks that have owned both think?



Its the other way around...
The more analogue sound is in general created by {unwanted} harmonics
The newer dacs are much better and so are cleaner not creating those harmonics
And not just the dacs... also the samples.. they are much cleaner because of better technollogy
